Levittโs Free Concert Season Presented by Kaiser Permanente105.5 The Colorado Sound PresentsBlack Joe Lewis & The Honeybearswith Derek Woods BandSaturday May 24th, 2025All Ages | Rain or Shine Doors Open: 6:00 PM | Show Start: 7:00 PM Free RSVP/Upgrades Onsale NowBlack Joe Lewis & The HoneybearsBlack Joe Lewis is the realest motherf*cker there is. When Covid sidelined his touring, he started laying concrete to help support his baby mama and his kid. Thatโs fuckinโ real. When Joe and his band, the Honeybears, popped onto the national stage over a decade ago, many critics embraced him but still, there were some that maintained that they hadnโt paid their dues. Joeโs still here. Still going. Still cashing checks and snapping necks. The dues of hard work; the delirious heights of the industry as well as the disappointments and low hanging fruit. Through this all, Joeโs only honed his mastery over gut bucket blues guitar and his true voice. Itโs a vital and distinctly American voice that never anticipated the attention he wound up receiving, never went looking for it either. It just started happening. The garage, the blues, the propulsive and synergistic live performances that inhabit the spaces of James Brown, Lightninโ Hopkins, and the MC5โฆthose things happened naturally from the very beginning and could only be accurately communicated in the live experience, not a press release or a slick brand campaign. Sharon Jones, Charles Bradley, Cedric Burnside and Lightnin Malcolm, The Dirtbombs, Detroit Cobras, the Strange Boys; these are some of the artists that Black Joe Lewis and the Honeybears shared countless bills with; almost a roll call of the most influential soul and garage bands of the last twenty five years.If you like whistling in your music and some floppy hat, quaky kneed dudes cloyingly singing at you, then you might not โget itโ but whateverโฆthere are enough intrepid, degenerate weirdos that do. Those are the folks Joe cares about. Not the glad handing set. Not the fair-weather friend set getting down with the flavor of the month. Like the title of his last album says, โthe difference between me and youโ is Joe defining for himself that thereโs the belabored wannabes and then thereโs dudes that actually โHAVE the bluesโ...whatever the hell THAT is! Joeโs concrete pouring boss is going to miss him.Derek Woods BandDEREK WOODS BAND is an International Award-Winning & Multi-Nominated Rock band.
